Office Policies

Punctuality is essential for all visits in order to minimize patient waiting time. In fact, please arrive 10 minutes early in order to be relaxed for your appointment.

Payment at the time of treatment is required. I accept cash or checks. If billing is required for tax or insurance purposes, please let me know.

A 24-hour advance notice is requested for any change in a scheduled appointment. Unless it is an emergency situation, you will be charged the full fee for a missed appointment.

To Enhance Treatment:

To gain maximum benefit from treatment, respect your mind and body and care for yourself. This includes adequate rest, nutrition and exercise, as well as minimizing excesses such as worry, fear, sugar, alcohol, coffee, tobacco, and processed foods.

On the Day of Treatment:

  • Do not eat heavy meals before or after treatment
  • Avoid excessively hot or cold bathing on the day of treatment
  • Avoid drinking caffeine or alcohol before and after treatment
  • Avoid manipulation such as chiropractic, physical therapy, or massage.
  • Stay away from direct drafts and winds
  • Avoid strenuous physical activity
  • Plan enough time for rest

Medical Care and Medication:

Classical Acupuncture can be used in cooperation with other care you are receiving. Continue any medication exactly as prescribed by your physician. After a period of time, and if and when it is appropriate, you may make arrangements with your physician to reduce or stop your medication.

Insurance:

Our experience is that more and more insurance companies are recognizing acupuncture as a covered benefit, but each policyholder should carefully check with his or her representative. Unless prior arrangements have been made, all visits are payable on the day of treatment.
